The 2019 ATPE Summit Is Blasting Off to Houston

Join us for ATPE’s annual gathering on July 17–19, 2019, at the Marriott Marquis in Houston. We’ve got plenty of activities on the schedule to match the energy and excitement of the city!

Wednesday, July 17

Say hello to professional development sessions. Earn up to three hours of continuing professional education (CPE) on Wednesday alone!

Get a breakdown of the recent legislative session from your trusted ATPE lobby team.

Join us for our welcome reception at the Marriott Marquis’s famous Texas-shaped lazy river. We’ll have drinks, appetizers, and entertainment!

Thursday, July 18

Shape the future of your association by participating in the House of Delegates meeting! Delegates will elect the 2019-20 ATPE state officers, vote on important ATPE agenda items, and shape ATPE’s legislative priorities for the upcoming year. (Eligible for up to two hours of CPE.)

Grab your boots and cowboy hats for a trip to the Old West! You won’t want to miss this rootin’-tootin’ evening at Discovery Green Park that includes a BBQ dinner, a live band, a best-western-dressed contest, gunslingers, a mechanical bull (waiver required), and MORE! Ticket fee of $25 per person for this event.

Friday, July 19

Our last day is all about motivation, inspiration, and fun! We’ll start the day off right with a motivating keynote from a fellow Texas educator, Todd Nesloney. (Eligible for one hour of CPE.)

Are you ready to become an ATPE volunteer rock star? After attending our training sessions, you’ll leave fully prepared to tackle the 2019-20 membership campaign.

Celebrate with us as we honor the 2018-19 ATPE awards nominees and winners at our annual Awards Luncheon.

To end summit on a homerun, we’re heading to a Houston Astros vs. Texas Rangers baseball game—while also helping to raise funds for ATPE-PAC. Tickets are available for $75 each on a first-come, first-served basis (limited quantity available).

To attend summit, your local unit or region president must register you. To learn more about the 2019 ATPE Summit and find out how you can attend, visit atpesummit.org. Housing and registration/delegate certification are open now and must be completed by June 17.
